Maviola

Meet Maviola, she’s Maviolous! Maviola is a quietly captivating project, especially for knitters ready to explore lace in a way that feels approachable and meditative. 

Maviola is May 2026’s Lola’s Choice kit… SIGN UP NOW if you want to join my small knitted kit club!

This lacy summer scarf begins at the center and is worked in two mirrored halves, unfolding outward to beautifully shaped tips. 

Mitered medallions anchor each end like small works of art, while a garter stitch base and flowing lace create an enjoyable, rhythmic knit. 

Optional beads add just a hint of sparkle, enough to keep your hands engaged and your eyes delighted. Light, fluid, and made for warmer days, Maviola can be worn long, wrapped, or styled as a head scarf. Easy to wear, easy to love, and just as nice to gift as it is to keep.

Plus, Maviola has a detailed video tutorial to walk your needles through each step.
